CD263 / TRAILR3

Background

Apoptosis is induced by certain cytokines including TNF and Fas ligand in the TNF family through their death domain containing receptors. TRAIL/Apo2L is a new member of the TNF family and induces apoptosis of a variety of tumor cell lines. DR4 and DR5 are the recently identified functional receptors for TRAIL (1-3). Two decoy receptors for TRAIL have been identified and designated DcR1/TRID/TRAIL-R3/LIT (2-7) and DcR2/TRAIL-R4/TRUNDD (8-10). DcR1 has extracellular TRAIL-binding domain but lacks intracellular signaling domain. It is a glycophospholipid-anchored cell surface protein. DcR1 transcripts are expressed in many normal human tissues but not in most cancer cell lines. Overexpression of DcR1 did not induce apoptosis, but attenuated TRAIL-induced apoptosis.Synonyms: Antagonist decoy receptor for TRAIL/Apo-2L, DCR1, Decoy TRAIL receptor without death domain, Decoy receptor 1, LIT, Lymphocyte inhibitor of TRAIL, TNF-related apoptosis-inducing ligand receptor 3, TNFRSF10C, TRAIL receptor 3, TRAIL-R3, TRID, Trail receptor without an intracellular domain, Tumor necrosis factor receptor superfamily member 10C
